The edge of the spine strip is rubbed at the head and tail, and the print on the spine faded, beneath that there is small pin prick. The front paste down has the remnants of an award sticker which has been mostly removed. The pages have yellowed and the edges are dust stained, the back end paper foxed. In its favour, it is a clean and solid copy, but obviously second hand. No publishing date, 1935 is taken from Trove.
